Zhang Zhong was very anxious.
He deeply understood what this news meant.
This means that Changtian Technology's chip design and production technology has been at least two eras ahead of Tire Electromechanical.
The mainstream products on the tire electromechanical side are also at the 130nm level. Although 90nm products are in production, their share in the entire output is still relatively small.
And if Changtian Technology really develops a 65-nanometer chip and applies for related patented technologies, then TiMC will have a harder time in one or two years.
Zhang Zhong immediately held a high-level meeting to assess the impact of this incident.
At this time, even a fool knows very well that Yanjiang Semiconductor's chip technology does not come from Zhang Jing's team at all, let alone Tibetan Semiconductor.
How can someone else come and grab something you don’t have?
Then there is only one possibility - Changtian Technology's semiconductor technology comes from Changtian Technology's chip laboratory.
The person who really occupies the leading position in R&D may not be the young people in Changtian Technology's chip laboratory, but Chen Xiao!
Everyone suddenly realized that this time they seemed to have gone too far.
If Changtian Technology is really forced into a dead end, it will be extremely difficult for TiMC's products to enter the Xiaguo market again in the future. It will also be very difficult for TiMC to have 65nm chip manufacturing technology.
At this time, TiMC came back to look at the situation in the United States and found that even Intel had ceased operations.
The entire page of the New York Times had nothing to do with TiMC, but instead focused heavily on Changtian Technology’s chip technology breakthroughs.
Now no one cares about who wins or loses in the lawsuit between Tibetan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Yanjiang Semiconductor. Instead, they care about who can guarantee the mass production of 65nm chips first between Intel and Changtian Technology.
Zhang Zhong suddenly felt a little flustered. The fact that Changtian Technology can produce 65nm chips is actually the best counterclaim material.
Under such circumstances, who would believe that Yanjiang Semiconductor's technology comes from Tuji Electric?
Zhang Zhong felt that his chances of winning the second trial were really slim.
The judicial process in the United States is quite complicated. From the counterclaim of the Yanjiang Peninsula group to the final second instance, it will take at least half a year, and may even drag on for as long as one or two years.
During this period of time, as long as Yanjiang Semiconductor can produce 65-nanometer chips, it will be a fatal blow to Moji Electric.
At that time, will the verdict be useful?
Moss, who had always been very concerned about the lawsuit and urged it to be settled as soon as possible, suddenly lost his courage.
Finally, after 4 hours of meeting.
Taijidian decided to put the prosecution aside for the time being, and would not actively urge it, but would wait and see what happens.
If Changtian Technology's 65nm chips can be mass-produced, then Moji Electric will quickly withdraw its lawsuit.
If Intel doesn't even fight, what's the point of challenging it alone?
As for the amount of compensation required by the first-instance judgment for Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor Company, and for Zhang Jing's team to leave the semiconductor industry, it is impossible for Tuji Electric to foolishly ask Yanjiang Semiconductor Company to implement it at such a sensitive period.
The Pangu chip infringement incident that lasted for almost a year started aggressively and ended in a tailspin.
Intel and Tujidian came back to their senses and thought, what did they get?
It seems like nothing is gained.
Except for the sharp increase in Lianxiang's order volume, nothing else has changed. In addition, a lot of time and energy have been spent to promote the advanced technology and low cost of Changtian Technology and Yanjiang Semiconductor Company to the world.
It seems like...it's not worth the loss.
Many PC companies watching the excitement found that both Intel and Turbine Electronics have ceased operations, and the second-instance judgment of the U.S. District Court will not come down until the year of the monkey.
Judging from the current situation, Tuji Electric and Yanjiang Semiconductor Company may not wait for the second judgment to reach a settlement, and the terms of the settlement should be more beneficial to both parties, without any excessive demands.
Under this situation, the Pangu chip designed by Changtian Technology and produced by Yanjiang Semiconductor Company has no problems at all in terms of production and use.
Businessmen often have a very keen sense of smell when it comes to cheap prices and benefits.
Many PC companies that were originally planning to cancel orders for Pangu chips suddenly stopped doing so.
Everyone’s attitude is, you fight yours, we earn ours, and we buy from whomever has the best value for money.
In fact, regarding the development of Pangu chips by Changtian Technology, capital from Western countries, including the United States, still has different opinions.
Because for a long time, the chip industry has been monopolized by Intel.
The capital represented by the Intel Group has made a lot of money, which has greatly reduced the profits of many PC companies in the United States. This has caused a headache for these PC companies and the capital behind it.
If a company can compete with Intel and break Intel's monopoly, many PC companies can also get cheaper chips. Why not do this kind of thing?
The only one who was a little injured was Lian Xiang...
Lianxiang has just spent a lot of money to purchase various new mid-range, high-end and low-end products from Intel.
Because Lianxiang's judgment is that Pangu chips will definitely be banned due to intellectual property issues, and Intel will achieve a complete monopoly on computer chips.
If Intel defeats Changtian Technology and Pangu chips cannot be produced and sold, then those companies that have purchased Pangu chips will in turn increase the purchase of Intel chips.
At this time, Intel's related chips will definitely increase in price.
Lianxiang felt that he was prepared for a rainy day and signed a supply agreement with Intel in advance for a large number of chips, which could be regarded as a guarantee of the number of PC chips he would need to use in the future and avoid being unable to buy the goods after the price increase.
Who knew... the incident didn't seem to develop as Lian Xiang expected.
The two sides were fighting but actually stopped fighting.
Pangu chips are still being produced and sold as usual, but those PC companies that were preparing to return products will not return them.
This made Lian Xiang quite passive.
Because with the same performance, Pangu chips are much cheaper than Intel chips.
One is a computer using Intel chips, and the other is a computer using Pangu chips with the same performance. There is also a large gap in production costs between the two parties.
So what should we do about the pricing of computers then?
If it is cheaper than others, Lianxiang will lose money; if it is more expensive than others, no consumers will buy it.
Yang Qing felt like he was going to vomit blood!
Moreover, when the two sides stopped attacking each other, the prices of the chips that Lianxiang had purchased actually dropped by 5% to 15%.
This directly made Yang Qing break his defense!
In other words, Lianxiang placed a large number of orders when the chip price was the highest, which is equivalent to filling the position when the futures price is the highest, and it is also equivalent to filling the position when the A-share price is over 5,000 points!
This feeling is so uncomfortable!
Moreover, chips are technological products, not resource products.
Once you buy a resource product and leave it there, it will be used sooner or later, without the risk of loss.
But after buying the chip, if it is left there and not used, it will be eliminated by more advanced chips sooner or later.
What you buy now is a treasure, but it may become waste after a while.
Lianxiang felt that he should reduce costs as soon as possible, and then consider whether he should also buy Pangu chips.
Lianxiang was very wealthy at the time. When negotiating an order with Intel, he paid in full because he was afraid that Intel would not deliver the goods on time.
This is just great!
Yang Qing personally called the person in charge of Intel, hoping to check the quantity of the order or adjust the unit price of the order.
But Intel has already taken over Lianxiang.
It is impossible to reduce the unit price, and it is impossible to reduce the total number of goods. Intel will provide you with as much quality and quantity as you buy.
After learning that Lian Xiang flatly rejected his proposal.
Yang Qing slumped in his seat and almost cried.
Under this situation, Lianxiang's financial statement data this year will definitely be very ugly.
There is a more terrifying thing happening. After IBM was acquired by Lianxiang, it did not play the role that Lianxiang expected. Instead, it is gradually becoming a negative asset for Lenovo.
When the war between Changtian Technology and Intel broke out, the news that Lianxiang was hoarding a large number of Intel chips at high prices was eventually reported by relevant media.
Now, Xia Guo's PC industry is having fun.
Xia Guo, Shenzhen City, after Wu Jun learned that Lianxiang purchased a large number of Lenovo's chips in cash.
Smiling from ear to ear!
Is there anything more joyful than this in the world?
Wu Jun laughed while chatting with the company's executives: "Yang Qing has been hesitant and finally made a wrong decision. I heard that the amount of chips purchased by Lianxiang this time was no less than 200 million yuan."
Vice President Zhang Hai said: "Actually, the root cause of the problem is that Lianxiang is not confident in Changtian Technology and Xia State's science and technology. He always believes that advanced science and technology must be in the West, not in Xia State . He will never believe that the technology matrix company established by Changtian Technology will develop and produce high-performance chips."
Wu Jun also said with some emotion at this time: "This is actually the biggest lack of confidence of the Chinese people. I even have some doubts. Is Lianxiang a Xia Guo company? It is hard to imagine that this company was born from the Xia Guo Academy of Sciences. !”
All joking aside, in fact, Wu Jun also knew very well that the technological war between Changtian Technology and the West was far from over. This time, neither side could defeat the other and had reached a short-term peace.
Wu Jun also sincerely admired Chen Xiao. Under such strong pressure, Changtian Technology actually survived.
Wu Jun even felt that without strong technological support and decisive response capabilities, any technology company in Xia would have surrendered long ago in the face of extreme pressure from Western technology companies.
Chen Xiao also knew very well that while Xia Guo's industrial chain layout was not completed, Changtian Technology's only advantage was technology.
Moreover, Changtian Technology also faced a problem that left Chen Xiao speechless.
Even so far, Xia's elites, especially those with higher knowledge reserves or those who work in large technology companies and research institutes, still have deep illusions about Western technology companies.
It is always believed that Chinese people cannot produce advanced technological products, and the best products can only be developed and produced by Westerners.
So does the lithography machine.
Chen Xiao asked Wang Xiang to go to Philips not because he wanted to cooperate with Philips and let Philips help produce lithography machines, but because he wanted to tell the elite of Xia State that giving up their illusions and being self-reliant is the way to go.
Sure enough, after Wang Xiang arrived at Philips headquarters, although he conducted earnest negotiations with the other party, he was also declined the request to produce photolithography machines.
Almost overnight, news of doubts about the production of Changtian Technology’s 65nm lithography machine suddenly appeared in the global media.
So what if you have the skills?
If you have technology but no production capacity, it is still equal to 0.
Changtian Technology did not do anything to stop such news.
Even if some media leaders took the initiative to call Changtian Technology and asked whether Changtian Technology needed news art processing or beautification, they were all rejected by Changtian Technology.
Chen Xiao wants to let Xia people know a real world of science and technology.
If you ask for all technological products, you will definitely not be able to get them. The only way to go is to be independent.
When Wang Xiang left Philips headquarters and left Holland for the airport, he understood Chen Xiao's intention.
It’s just that Wang Xiang understood it, but I don’t know if the elites in Xia Kingdom understand it. I wonder if Lian Xiang understands it?
After Wang Xiang returned to Jiangzhou, he reported the details of his negotiations with Asmer and Philips to Chen Xiao.
All this was within Chen Xiao's expectation. Chen Xiao said: "If they want to cooperate with us, the earth can really turn upside down."
"Now we are racing against time. Intel is greatly stimulated. 65nm chips and even dual-core chips must have been launched. They hope to complete the mass production of 65nm chips before we do mass production."
Chen Xiao said: "Intel has a complete chip production chain, abundant funds, and is a shareholder of ASML. It has the right time, place and people."
"Changtian Technology has just established a chip production chain. We have the most advanced etching machines in the world, but we do not have a photolithography machine, a mature industrial chain, and even the funds are not as strong as Intel's."
"Do you think it is difficult to complete the entire production process from photolithography machines to chips in a short period of time?"
Wang Xiang looked at the smiling Chen Xiao and swallowed, knowing that Chen Xiao was not joking.
The publication of relevant technical papers on 65nm chips is not to deter the other party's provocation, but to do it with real guns!
But Chen Xiao's expression didn't look like fear at all, but that he was confident of victory.
Chen Xiao tapped his fingers on the table and said, "We must first solve the funding problem."
During this period, Chen Xiao did not rest. After detailed calculations, if Changtian Technology used the current domestic industry chain to produce lithography machines according to its own technology, the cost would be at least 2 billion RMB, not to mention the time.
This price is much more expensive than buying it separately!
Why?
Because Xia State does not have any supporting industrial chain, all components must be completed by Changtian Technology alone.
This is a difficult task!
